So much style without substanceSo much stuff without styleIt's hard to recognize the real thingIt comes along once in a while

Like a rare and precious metal Beneath a ton of rock It takes some time and trouble To separate from the stock You sometimes have to listen to A lot of useless talk

Shapes and formsAgainst the normsAgainst the run of the millSwimming against the streamLife in two dimensionsIs a mass production scheme

So much poison in powerThe principles get left outSo much mind on the matterThe spirit gets forgotten about Like a righteous inspiration Overlooked in haste Like a teardrop in the Ocean A diamond in the waste Some world-views are spacious And some are merely spaced

Against the run of the millStatic as it seemsWe break the surface tensionWith our wild kinetic dreamsCurves and linesOf grand designs
